Terminal 1, emitter; terminal 2, base; terminal 3, collector; terminal 4, case. 2. Chamfer or undercut on one or both ends of hexagonal portion is optional. 3. The outline contour with the exception of the hexagon is optional within cylinder defined by CD1 and A1. 4. Terminal r can be flattened and pierced or hook type. A visual index is required when the flattened and pierced tab terminal contour (identical to the adjacent terminals) option is used. The case terminal (hook) is mechanically connected to the case. The other three terminals shall be electrically isolated from the case. 5. Angular orientation of terminals with respect to hexagon is optional. 6. HT dimension does not include sealing flanges. 7. SU is the length of incomplete or undercut threads. 8. SD is the pitch diameter of coated threads. Reference: Screw threads standards for Federal Service Handbook H28, part I. 9.
